Issue(s) Resolved in this Hotfix
Important: If you have a corrupt license file, you need to do the following before installing this hotfix:
1. Stop Citrix Licensing, the Citrix Licensing Windows Management Instrumentation, and the License Management Console services.
2. Delete the corrupt license file. By default, it is located in %ProgramFiles%\Citrix\Licensing\MyFiles.
3. Restart Citrix Licensing, the Citrix Licensing Windows Management Instrumentation, and the License Management Console services.
4. Launch the Management Console, click Configure License Server, and select Update License Data.
That purges the corrupt data from the license file.
1. The License Management Console was corrupting license files that contained extended characters. This prevented logons to Citrix products referenced in the license files. This occurred because the License Management Console was performing an inappropriate conversion of non-ASCII characters in the license file during the copy process.
After you apply this hotfix, you can use the Management Console upload function to copy your original license file to your license server. If you did not keep a copy of the original license, you can download it again from the Citrix CAS site. See Citrix Knowledge Base article CTX103794 for additional information.

2. The display of the license server name in the Management Console is not case sensitive. Instead, the name of the license server appears in CAPS.
This fix corrects the issue.

3. Earlier versions of the Management Console implement a hierarchy of possible Locale settings. Your explicit choice from the Welcome page overrides all defaults, followed by the browser's Locale setting, followed by the value of a configuration parameter in the Console's web.xml configuration file. Additionally, the Console supports language-specific bookmarking, appending a locale flag to each URL so that you can bookmark individual pages in the languages you specify.
This release simplifies the hierarchy by eliminating the configuration parameter from the web.xml file, and by eliminating language-specific bookmarking. Note that this release does not address any language-specific bookmarking issue. Instead, it simplifies and enhances the current bookmarking functionality.
The browser's locale setting is used as the default locale unless you select a different language setting on the Welcome page. If you do so, the particular server to which you are connected remembers your choice of language settings and applies it to all your subsequent Console sessions on that server.

4. Earlier versions of the Management Console implement HTML character set encoding based on your Locale settings. English, French, German and Spanish locales are displayed using the ISO-8859-1 "Latin" character set, while Japanese is displayed using Shift-JIS. While this is standard design practice, it prevents the display of multiple languages, for example Japanese and French, on the same page. When displaying multiple languages on the same page, some special characters may therefore not display correctly.
With this fix, HTML character set encoding is set to UTF-8, regardless of your locale.

5. If the information in the lmc.properties file contains special, non-ASCII characters, the information is displays incorrectly. This issue is evident, for example, in file paths that contain special characters. It is caused by the fact that Java properties files cannot contain non-ASCII characters.
This fix migrates the information in the lmc.properties file to an XML file, which supports UTF-8 encoding. UTF-8 encoding and extends the range of supported special characters.

6. In keeping with Section 508 compliance, this fix introduces a number of enhancements to the HTML that is underlying the user interface of the Management Console. These enhancements are intended to improve the usability of the Console for users who use screen readers.
